- a casino
- for your buffet
It is also suitable for small meetings and tables are available to set up as a committee meeting.
Bar
The bar is licensed for the sale of alcohol on the premises providing that it is managed by a member of the Village Hall Committee.
The bar has a general stock but can be adapted to meet your specific needs:
- beer and/or lager on draught
- barrels of beer
- bottled beer, lager and cider
- range of spirits and mixers
- red, white, rose wines as well as prosecco and champagne
- soft drinks
We will discuss your requirements before the date of your event. If special items are purchased but not fully used (and cannot be used for a subsequent event) then they may need to be recharged - this will be made clear in advance.
The Hall will provide the bar staff for your event and are able to serve welcome drinks and top up during meals and speeches if required.

Parking is available for the Hall although care is needed for busy events.
